Changing my libraries view

Hi,

I did something to my Plex desktop app, and I have changed the view of the contents of my Movies library. I have a collection of folders which I put my movies (even though I know that’s not strictly necessary.)

I used to have a grid of the view of folders, but now they are in a list. How can I change it back to a grid? I have attached a screenshot to show what I have now.

Thanks.

You should see a control similar to this in the upper right corner:

EDIT: Oh, wait, you’re in folder view. Plex changed folder view to the list mode only with a recent release. Currently there’s no way to switch back. There are several complaints about this in the forum.

You won’t see the view option menu if you’re browsing by folder. The Plex team has been pretty hostile toward folder navigation the past few years, and they seem to have decided to only support one view for folder browsing. Sadly it’s the view with the most wasteful use of space that they’ve decided to retain.

See: Why did we lose grid view when browsing by folders?

Thank you both.
